Age‐related radiomorphometric changes on panoramic radiographs [PDF]
AbstractObjectivesWe aimed to analyse age‐related anatomical changes in teeth and mandibular structures using panoramic radiographs.Materials and MethodsWe included 471 subjects aged 13–70 years (mean, 35.12 ± 18.72 years). Panoramic radiographs were used to record intraoral condition and radiomorphometric parameters. After grouping the subjects by age

Diagnosis of unusual mandibular split fracture with cone-beam computed tomography
Mandibular fractures are relatively easy to diagnose in comparison with other craniofacial fractures. This report presents a trauma patient with an unusual split fracture in the mandibular corpus, which was missed on the panoramic radiograph; however ...

Panoramic Radiographs for Detecting Osteopenia: A Pilot Study [PDF]
Osteoporosis characterized by low bone mass/osteopenia can be identified using radiomorphometric indices in routine panoramic radiographs. This study estimates the prevalence of osteopenia in 50-80 years age group, using panoramic mandibular index (PMI), mental index (MI) and mandibular cortical index (MCI). PMI, MI and MCI were applied on 36 panoramic

A radiographic study on the visualization of the anterior loop in dentate subjects of different age groups [PDF]
The anterior loop is defined as where the mental neurovascular bundle crosses anterior to the mental foramen then doubles back to exit the mental foramen. It cannot be seen clinically but can be detected in 11-60 of panoramic radiographs.
